Provided by Elise Bauer

Categories     Dessert     Baking     Make-ahead

Time 1h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

Cake:
6 eggs
1 cup (200 g) white granulated sugar (divided into 3/4 cup and 1/4 cup)
1 cup (120 g) finely ground walnuts (from about 1 1/3 cup of shelled walnuts)
1/2 cup (55 g) fine dry breadcrumbs (plain, unseasoned)
Mocha Topping:
1/2 cup (100 g) white granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup (8 fluid ounces, 236 ml) strong coffee (I use decaf, with twice the amount of coffee for the liquid as I would usually use to drink)
1 ounce (30 g) of chocolate chips (a little less than 1/4 of a cup)
1 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup (8 fluid ounces, 236 ml) heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Separate the eggs: Separate the eggs, into yolks and whites (see How to Separate Eggs ). Take care to make sure there are no pieces of shell or egg yolk in the whites, and that the bowl you are using to contain them is completely clean with no residue of fat. Any fat from yolks or oil will make it difficult to beat the egg whites.
  • Prepare cake pans: Prepare two 9-inch cake pans. Line the pans with parchment paper or wax paper. Lightly butter the sides of the pans (not the paper).
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C)
  • Mix ground walnuts and breadcrumbs: Mix together the ground walnuts and the bread crumbs in a small bowl and set aside.

Categories     Berry     Chocolate     Nut     Dessert     Bake     Blackberry     Walnut     Winter     Gourmet     Kidney Friendly     Peanut Free     Soy Free

Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

For cake layers
1 1/2 cups walnuts (6 oz)
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
2/3 cup sugar
6 large eggs, separated
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 teaspoon salt
For jam filling
1 1/2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin (less than 1 envelope)
1 tablespoon water
3/4 cup strained blackberry preserves (from 1 cup with seeds)
Mocha buttercream
Special Equipment
a pastry bag fitted with an 3/4-inch plain tip

Steps:

  • Make cake layers:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 15- by 10- by 1-inch baking pan and line bottom with wax or parchment paper. Butter paper.
  • Pulse walnuts in a food processor until finely chopped (do not allow to become a paste) and stir together with flour in a bowl.
  • Beat together butter and 1/3 cup sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Add yolks 1 at a time, beating well after each addition, then beat in vanilla. Stir in nut mixture by hand.
  • Beat egg whites with salt with cleaned beaters in another bowl at medium speed until they hold soft peaks. Add remaining 1/3 cup sugar and beat at high speed until whites just hold stiff peaks. Stir one fourth of whites into batter to lighten, then fold in remaining whites gently but thoroughly.
  • Spread batter evenly in baking pan, smoothing top. Bake in middle of oven until center is set and top is pale golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool cake in pan on a rack. Cover cake with an inverted baking sheet, then invert cake onto it and remove paper.
  • Reinvert cake onto a cutting board. Trim about 1/4 inch from each side of cake with a sharp knife, then cut cake crosswise into 4 equal rectangles (each about 9 by 3 1/2 inches). Line baking sheet with wax or parchment paper and transfer cake to baking sheet, arranging layers side by side, touching.
  • Make jam filling:
  • Sprinkle gelatin over water in a small bowl and let stand 1 minute to soften. Heat strained preserves in a double boiler or a metal bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water until warm, then add gelatin mixture and stir until dissolved, about 2 minutes. Remove bowl from heat and set in a larger bowl of ice water. Cool, stirring occasionally, until cold, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Spread jam evenly over cake layers and chill until set, about 1 hour.
  • Assemble cake:
  • Reserve the nicest-looking cake layer for top. Put 1 cake layer, jam side up, on a cake platter and spread with 1/3 cup buttercream. Top with second cake layer, jam side up, and spread with 1/3 cup buttercream. Top with third layer, jam side up, and spread with 1/3 cup buttercream. Top with reserved cake layer, jam side up. Frost sides of cake with about 1 cup buttercream. Transfer remaining buttercream to pastry bag and pipe a decorative border around top edge of cake.

WALNUT MOCHA TORTE RECIPE RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Walnut Mocha Torte Recipe Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by á-29460

Number Of Ingredients 12

Mocha Topping:
6 eggs
1 cup (200 g) white granulated sugar (divided into 3/4 cup and 1/4 cup)
1 cup (120 g) finely ground walnuts (from about 1 1/3 cup of shelled walnuts)
1/2 cup (55 g) fine dry bread crumbs (plain, unseasoned)
1/2 cup (100 g) white granulated sugar
2 Tbsp corn starch
1 cup (8 fluid ounces, 236 ml) strong coffee (I use decaf, with twice the amount of coffee for the liquid as I would usually use to drink)
1 ounce (30 g) of chocolate chips (a little less than 1/4 of a cup)
1 Tbsp butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup (8 fluid ounces, 236 ml) heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • 1 Separate the eggs, into yolks and whites (see How to Separate Eggs). Take care to make sure there are no pieces of shell or egg yolk in the whites, and that the bowl you are using to contain them is completely clean with no residue of fat. Any fat from yolks or oil will make it difficult to beat the egg whites. 2 Prepare two 9-inch cake pans. Line the pans with parchment paper or wax paper. Lightly butter the sides of the pans (not the paper). 3 Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Mix together the ground walnuts and the bread crumbs in a small bowl and set aside. 4 Place the egg yolks into a mixing bowl and beat until smooth. Slowly add 3/4 cup of white sugar and continue to beat the egg yolks until thick and pale. (I use a hand mixer for this.) 5 Using a stand mixer, beat the egg whites with the whisk attachment until foamy. Slowly drizzle in 1/4 cup of white sugar, and beat until soft peaks form. 6 With a rubber spatula, gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture, alternately with the walnut mixture. 7 Spoon the batter into the prepared, parchment-layered cake pans. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes at 350°F (175°C) until a slight imprint remains when touched. 8 While the cake is cooking prepare the mocha frosting base. Place 1/2 cup of white sugar and 2 tablespoons of cornstarch into a saucepan. Turn the heat onto medium and gradually stir in the coffee and the chocolate chips. Stir continuously until the mixture starts to simmer and thicken quite substantially. Continue to stir while the mixture simmers for 1 minute. Then remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract until well blended. Let cool completely. (You will incorporate this mocha base into whipped cream when you frost the cake.) 9 Remove the cakes from oven and cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Run a dull knife around the edges of the cakes to separate it from the sides of the pans. Carefully invert the cakes onto a rack. Carefully peel back and discard the parchment or wax paper. Let cool completely. Note that if you want to make ahead, you can cook the cakes first, let cool to room temp, wrap with plastic wrap, and freeze until you are ready to frost and serve. 10 Complete the frosting. Whip the cream until it is rather thick, just before that point to which if you kept on whipping it would turn to butter. This will help it hold up as a frosting. Once whipped, fold the whipped cream and mocha base together. It may be a little speckled, and if you fold it only lightly, you can have almost a marbling effect of light and dark with the frosting, if you wish. Place one cake on a serving platter. Frost the top. Place the second cake on top of it, and frost the top and sides of the cake. Serve immediately, or keep chilled until serving.

DORIE GREENSPAN'S MOCHA WALNUT TORTE



Dorie Greenspan's Mocha Walnut Torte image

This cake is an excellent keeper and, because it's sturdy, a good traveler-make it for a friend or take it to a potluck. It's good plain and good with whipped cream or crème fraîche. And if you want to dress it up, it takes nicely to a drizzle of chocolate ganache.

Provided by Dorie Greenspan

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 16

Butter or baking spray (for the pan)
Cocoa powder (for the pan)
1 1/2 cups walnuts (whole or pieces)
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (divided)
4 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate (coarsely chopped)
2 tablespoons ground coffee (preferably espresso)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
8 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate (finely chopped)
4 tablespoons (2 oz) unsalted butter (cut into 4 pieces, at room temperature)
1/2 recipe Chocolate Ganache (for finishing)
Toasted walnuts (for sprinkling)
Whipped cream (crème fraîche and/or confectioners' sugar)

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat it to 350°F (180°C).
  • Coat a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan with butter or baking spray. Line the bottom with parchment and butter or spray the parchment, then dust the pan with cocoa powder. Place the pan on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment or a silicone baking mat.
  • In a food processor, combine the nuts, 2 tablespoons (25 g) of the sugar, the chocolate, coffee, and cinnamon and pulse, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl often and taking care that you don't process for so long that the walnuts become a paste and the chocolate melts. You want to end up with a bread-crumb-like mixture-it's better to have some discernible morsels than to overdo it.
  • Separate the eggs, putting the yolks in a large bowl and the whites in the bowl of a stand mixer or a large bowl that you can use with a hand mixer.
  • Working with a whisk, beat the yolks until they're homogeneous. Gradually whisk in 3/4 cup (150 g) of the sugar and then beat until the mixture is pale and your whisk leaves tracks, about 2 minutes.
  • Beat in the vanilla. Switch to a flexible spatula and stir in the walnut mixture.
  • Add the salt to the whites. Attach the bowl to the mixer stand, if using, and fit it with the whisk attachment. Beat the whites until they are foamy, opaque and just a bit thick, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Beat in the remaining 1/4 cup (50 g) sugar, adding it a tablespoon at a time. Once all the sugar is in, the whites should be thick and glossy-lift the beater(s), and the meringue should hold a pretty peak. If it doesn't, continue to beat for 2 to 3 minutes more.
  • Using a flexible spatula, scoop out about a quarter of the meringue and add it to the bowl with the egg yolk mixture. Stir everything together energetically so that the whites lighten the thick mixture.
  • Scrape the rest of the meringue into the bowl and, being gentle, stir and fold it in. (Without overdoing it, you want to get as much of the meringue into the nut mixture as quickly as possible. If there are a few white streaks, it's fine (better to have streaks than to knock all the air out of the meringue.) Scrape the batter into the pan, swiveling the pan from side to side to settle the batter evenly.
  • Bake until the cake feels firm to the touch and has risen and a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. (The rise might be higher around the edges, but the middle should lift too.)
  • Move the pan to a rack and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes, then run a table knife between the cake and the sides of the pan to release the cake. Remove the sides of the springform and allow the cake to cool to room temperature on the rack.
  • Rinse a small saucepan with cold water, but don't dry it (this helps prevent the cream from scorching). Pour in the cream, set the pan over medium heat and bring just to a boil.
  • Remove from the heat and add the chocolate. Wait 30 seconds and then, working with a small flexible spatula and beginning in the center of the pan, start stirring the chocolate and cream together. Stir in ever-widening concentric circles until you have a thick, shiny, smooth mixture. Piece by piece, blend in the butter until melted and smooth, about 3 minutes.
  • When the cake is cool, invert it, remove the base of the pan and the parchment and turn the cake right side up onto the rack.
  • If you want to glaze the cake, now's the time. Put a piece of foil or other drip catcher under the rack, pour the ganache over the cake and use an offset spatula or knife to smooth it over the top. (Alternatively, you can drizzle the ganache over the cake. And if you're using toasted walnuts, sprinkle them over the glaze while it's still warm.)
  • Refrigerate the cake until chilled, wrapping it well once it's cold. The cake is good at room temperature, but I prefer it straight from the fridge. It also cuts better when it's cold.
  • Serve with whipped cream or crème fraîche or, if you prefer, dust the top with confectioners' sugar. Or don't-it's fine just the way it is.
